From Skyscrapers to $3,500: How the Woolworth Dynasty Crumbled in One Generation

The shocking true story of the Woolworth dynasty: How a $350 million retail empire built on nickels and dimes was completely destroyed by its own heirs. From Frank Winfield Woolworth's rise from potato fields to constructing the tallest building in the world (the iconic Woolworth Building), to the tragic life of his granddaughter Barbara Hutton — the original "Poor Little Rich Girl" who inherited a fortune worth nearly $1 billion in today's money, married seven times (including Cary Grant), battled addiction and abuse, and died nearly penniless with just $3,500 left. This is the ultimate cautionary tale of the "Woolworth Curse" — extreme wealth, family neglect, suicide, fortune hunters, divorce settlements that drained millions, anorexia, drug addiction, and a lonely death in a Beverly Hills hotel room. Discover how unearned riches poisoned an American retail legacy and turned a dream into a nightmare. Was the Woolworth Curse caused by bad parenting, extreme wealth, or just tragic luck?
